I need some advice on a ski that will be good all over the mountain but will handle jumps and rails in the park. I am at a expert ski level. 6 ft 210. Live in the east so hard pack snow mostly. I have been looking at Line Chronic priced well , ON3P Jeronmio a bit pricey. Rossi Slat. Im thinking rocker camber Rocker profile on the ski. Bindings I am set on Rossi FKS. I open to suggestions Thanks!

The chronicle are great park skis (I have a pair) but I use volkl bridges as my all mountain and sometimes hit the park ski (though there is no camber so it does not fit your exact requirement). I have been very happy with my bridges

head oblivions are nice, a little more camber than the slat but still pretty soft. pretty nice in park and completely rips groomers.

Blends or Bacons. They both can rip pow/groomers all day and are super fun in park. If you're 210 I think the blends may be too soft for you though, which is why I suggest Bacons.

I'm coming up on a year on my slat and still loving it. Its one of my favorite skis I've ever owned. 181 Mounted -2 with FKS 140. I ski mostly mountain and a few park laps but the ski kills it. and the price. well you cant beat that in that category. Other ones you should look at:
Line Blend
Faction Soma
Dynastar Slicer

The Chronic is a bitch ski compared to the J-mo. J-mo is my all time favorite ski in this category and at your size I'd highly recommend it.

Moment PB&J is honestly your best choice here. Those things shred so hard
